'Sapere Aude', as used in Immanuel Kant's Essay, "What is
Enlightenment?" means
'Dare to Know.' This phrase exemplifies the mission of Sapere Aude.
Our aim is to
facilitate intellectual discovery by encouraging students to reason
independently and to
explore unfamiliar philosophical territory.

We invite undergraduate students to submit philosophical papers in all
areas of
philosophy. The papers should exhibit independent thought and
exemplify a deep
understanding of a philosophical issue.

Papers sent to Sapere Aude for consideration of inclusion must adhere
to the following:
1) Each entry should be prepared for blind review and must have a
title page
containing the author's name, college or university, and year. No
other identifier
should be present within the paper.

footnotes as a
supplement to the text.
